A journey by rail
Venice Simplon-Orient-Express
Let the train become part of the stay. Selected journeys connect Paris and Venice, with time to settle in the city on either side.
We explore the departure, cabin and station transfers, then coordinate accommodation and dining around the journey.
La Dolce Vita Orient Express
A separate Italian train offering journeys including Rome–Venice and Venice–Rome itineraries, with routes shaped by the published programme.
The route, departure and cabin are checked individually; onward city connections and hotel nights are planned around the chosen itinerary.
Tell us when you will be here. We will share occasions and experiences to shape your time around.
Browse Events & Experiences ↗How the stay could unfold
Let the water transfer be the first pause after the train. Once settled, choose a short walk and a quiet lunch before deciding how much of the city belongs in the afternoon.
A second day might begin early on the canals and end at a table overlooking the water. We coordinate station arrivals, luggage and hotel timings so the practical details stay in the background.
What we can coordinate
- Accommodation, station and airport transfers
- Dining, cultural visits and local guides
- Rail enquiries and time before or after the journey
- Personal requests, celebrations and changes during your stay
